At times he felt all his first passion for Josphlns revive and he forsook everything to be with her. These times were the happiest of their life together for Josephine now loved him with all her heart. Still the cloud of divorce hovered over them both. -Napoleon dreaded and yet wished it: Josephina shrink from the Idea with a shuddering horror but she felt that It was Inevitable. Napoleon after pre- i:!inuuiy ueiears won a mump'..". victory at Wagfara. This put me haughty emperor of Austria In. Ills power and he at once demanded the h.nd of his daughter .Marie Louise in ..arriage. He returned to Paris and invited the kinps whose crowns he had given and the highest In the state to assemble before him. At this meeting h? announced his intended separation from Josephine. She had been private ly informed by him of his purpose the night before In a heart-rending Inter view, lie had shown tho sreatest of kindness to her nnd had stayed up the entire niijht going constantly to her room to ask if she was better and beKstinsr her to be brave for the sake of France. In the public meetlnir the I'nrxt day ho spoke in the very highest terms of the deep affection and the loving devotion she had given him and his reverent love for her. Slio had w ritten her consent to the divorce and was to read it but her voice refused to utter the fatal words and she handed the paper to ono of the court who read it for her. It contained a simple statement of her willingness to sacri fice her life for Fran'e and to give what was more than her life if in so doing she could benefit tho man she loved, At Malmaistm N.poleon himself took her to Mal maison where she said she preferred to make her home. He went often theie to visit her ami after her chath, when he himself had lost everything and was about to b? sent to S: lUluia. he went there rn I shut himself up for several day. in the room where she had died. The wife for whom he had de-serted Josephine had lor.ir since deserted him.

(I. X. ft.) I'nhappy husbands and wives should be forced to live apart temporarily, Dr. Helen Boyle, head of a big Brigh ton hospital, told the British Medical association, meeting at Newcastle. In thiH manner, added Dr. Boyle, many martial "grouches" would dis appear, and divorce lawyers would be deprived of -most of their business. 'Tnhnppiness is only a disease," said Dr. Boyle, who recently returned from the. Vnlted .States, where she in vestigated mental cures. "It is not nor mal for a man or woman to bo un happy for more than a short time. 'and it Is the business of doctors "to jmako that known to everyone, j "We should have special wards In our hospitals for parents seriously !ef- flicted with unhapplness. They should have highly trained nurses who know how to drive away the blues. Doctors should proscribe! temporary separa tions, trips to the movies, sea veivagos anything to break up spedls of un happlness." Dr. Boyle gave the medicos another thing to think about in her lecture on tinhappini'ss.
